Comparative studies on the role of benzoic, t-cinnamic, and salicylic acids on growth, some biochemical aspects, and yield of three flax cultivars grown under sandy soil conditions

Abstract

Results show the superiority of Blanka cultivar in some growth parameters, photosynthetic pigments, indole acetic acid (IAA), phenolic contents, seed yield, and some yield components. Application of different phenolic acids enhanced growth parameters, photosynthetic pigments, IAA, phenolic contents, seed yield, and yield components as well as oil and carbohydrate percentages in the yielded seeds.
